How come ashe sigma and ball are getting nerfed but not echo? I’ve hated this hero from the moment she came out, she does insane burst damage and arguably has the best ult in the game…and that beam is the bane of my existence so why, is it because of some bs like pickrate or winrate?

She is meta in GM…
Cause the world could always use more Heroes.

Because she’s meta both teams will often have an echo so the winrate doesn’t really matter because It’s probably gonna be around 50% cause there’s always gonna be one that loses and one that wins

To answer your question: She exists because she was created.
Echo is far from being so opressive as Sigma or Ball. But I have to say that I hate her being impossible to kill in her ult.

What’s surprising to me (and kind of broken too imo) is how fast Echo charges up the ultimate of the hero she copies. It’s like: copy Reinhardt, 2 swings, boom shatter.
With 2.5% pickrate?
Because she is a great designed hero with a fun kit, and unlike u, others enjoy playing her, so ty for creating a skilled hero Blizzard 
Never said they shouldn’t have created her, just saying she is meta, and that is just a fact

Depends. her pickrate doesnt indicate meta, but she is the best projectile hero and a good pick up there.
I meant OP which seem to have some hate?? for a fun hero.

I strongly dislike echo. Like, I love her gameplay and skill expression but GOOD LORD that character is the epitome of burst damage. And her bombs are spammy as hell.
Eh… not really. Echo’s ult is fairly expensive to build. Then she gets a chance to potentially use 2 ults… that she has to build again.
Usually she gets 1 ult, sometimes 2, more frequently zero when compared to getting 2.
I’m not talking about how fast she charges her ultimate, I’m talking about how fast she charges the ultimate of the hero she copied after she uses her ultimate to copy someone.
I think being able to copy any hero she wants is a good ultimate in itself, let alone being able to copy their ultimate, and at much faster speeds than that hero is able to charge it originally.
I get she can be fun but that burst damage is insane
the world could always use more heroes that aren’t DPS.

Why is it broken? The main advantage of her copying another hero is to use their ult. If it took a long time for her to charge the copy ult, it would basically make her ult pointless.
Although I think they should limit it so she can only use one copy ult per instance. I’ve gotten almost three meteor strikes within one copy before, which is a little ridiculous

She pays for it being fully projectile, a big hitbox and being incostistent if there is a threat of hitscan(s), and there are … EVERYWHERE +.+
You’re describing a style of play, not an inherent weakness

i actually like that aspect because you can track and just know when the duplicate echo has her ultimate. echo shatters are the easiest in the game to stun/block
Counterpoint: the world could use only more dps heroes.
